Sessions Say
Speaking about the situation surrounding Comey’s firing, Sessions believed the President acted in a correct manner.
“It was the right thing to do. The facts were pretty clear on it. He made a big mistake and he testified only a few weeks before that termination that he would do it again [announce reopening the Clinton probe] if he had the opportunity. So we felt like there was a serious breach of discipline within the department if we allowed him to continue,” he said.
Comey had once said he made a big mistake, that would probably be seen in the report which would be released.
I think it will be a lengthy report and a careful report,” he told “Rising” co-host Buck Sexton. “I think it will help us better fix any problems that we have and reassure the American people that some of the concerns that have been raised are not true.”
“If anyone else shows up in this report to have done something that requires termination we will do so,” he added.
This report was expected by many to cause a big shift in the Justice Department and give Trump a win he looked forward to.
